Grayby, a film and exhibit exploring trauma and grief
Grayby, an exhibition by @impalavaka at Leith Makers, is a mixed media exploration of childhood trauma and grief, using film collages and original music.
About Grayby, a film and exhibit exploring trauma and grief
This exhibit includes paintings, collages, poetry and a short film with original music which explore grief, childhood and healing. What's special about this exhibit is the heavy emotional charge that the work contains.
The film stars a doll which represents the film maker's inner child. It follows his relationship with the doll, sometimes brutal and sometimes loving. The original music expands on feelings of guilt, anger and disgust with one's self.
The paintings, collages and poems all discuss what it's like to try and better yourself when nothing feels easy. The strength of this exhibit is how vulnerable and emotionally raw it is.
